I have a realistic grasp of my own strengths and weaknesses. My mind is my weapon. My brother has his sword, King Robert has his warhammer, and I have my mind… and a mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge. That’s why I read so much, Jon Snow.
I dislike the entire Lannister family aside from Tyrion. Joffrey, the spoiled brat that he is, needs someone to tell him know (and maybe smack him in the mouth a bit...or a lot). Ned Stark was too good or a man for the treatment he received. Jon Snow may be a literal bastard, but he's got a heart of gold, struggling with his identity as he may be. I feel sorry for Daenerys being thrust into situations that she doesn't want to be in and needing to make the best of what happens to and around her.
I never read these books before, nor have I watched the show, and I am currently wishing I started reading years ago rather than waiting this long.
